This shows a lack of understanding for what others may be experiencing. Let me explain how it is for me. When I pass near the chocolate or bakery aisle it calls to me like a siren. It’s very difficult to resist. The only method that works for me is to abstain completely. 2-3 weeks of abstinence silences the siren call of sugar.

That might seem weird, I’m talking about sugary treats like an alcoholic describing liquor. Curiously, I feel almost nothing for alcohol. I can take it or leave it.

Hopefully it helps you understand. For what it’s worth, your comment sounds exceedingly smug. That probably wasn’t your intention, just giving you a heads up.
